Tiny bubbles in the wine,
Make me happy, make me feel fine,
Tiny bubbles make me warm all over
With a feeling that I'm gonna love you 'til the end of time.......

Okay, There is something weird going on with me...in the valley below.

My urine is bubbly..a mass of bubbles usually in groups the size of a quarter. Oh, about three bunches... I had notice that for some time, thought that it was from my tiny Niagara Fall...

But as of late, while sitting, walking, minding my business my urethra has become a bubble maker...

I also feel bloated but not I don't have the visual of being bloated or feel bloated to the touch...just my hard lard there. Maybe achy, but without pain..crampy..or maybe it is just bubbles popping..

Anyone ever been diagnose with Pnematuia? Passage of gas in the urine. After surfing that could be a possiblity...

I was just treated for a UTI...with the regime that got rid of the H. Pylori.

I feel so dirty, that I don't even want to touch myself as if I was a thing and when picked up, you would go..eeewww...whas dat?

Mrs. Bubbles.

Oluwa, I remember others posting that "foamy urine" was an indicator of kidney issues. Hopefully Saysusie or one of the others with similar experiences will jump in on this.

Or could it be a reaction from the meds you took to get rid of the UTI???

Hugs - and hope all is OK.

Oluwa;
My first guess would be that you are leaking protein in your urine, which indicates kidney involvement. Especially since you say that your UTI has cleared up and since you say you feel bloated. Also, what type of medication did you take for your UTI? Some medications for UTI can cause foamy or bubbly urine.
Foamy urine may also be caused by bilirubin (a yellow breakdown product of normal heme catabolism {one of the functions in the body relating to the metabolism of oxygen}. Its levels are elevated in certain diseases and it is responsible for the yellow colour of bruises and the brown colour of feces. Bilirubin reduction in the gut leads to a product called urobilinogen. Urobilinogen is then oxidized to urobilin which is excreted in the urine)in the urine (bilirubinuria), pneumaturia (air bubbles in the urine) due to a fistula (an abnormal connection or passageway between two epithelium-lined organs or vessels that normally do not connect), or drugs, as I mentioned above, such as pyridium and other medications used for UTI.
If none of these are the case, consider this: if it is very cold where you are and the toilet water is cold, this could cause your urine to foam when it meets the water. But, given the other symptoms you mentioned, I would suggest that you talk to your doctor to get another urinalysis.

Let us know what your doctor says....keep us posted!

Peace and Blessings

Thank you Hatlady and Saysusie...

I was taking a PREVPAC...4 pills two times a day. It included an acid-reducing drug called Prevacid and two antibiotics called amoxicillin capsules, USP and BIAXIN® Filmtab® (clarithromycin tablets, USP).

I was also reading about the fistula, abnormal connection...between the urinary tract and intestines...HUmm, wondering is that why I had two UTI's recently, before during my 46 years none...

My last urinalysis was about 3 weeks ago, when the UTI was detected but no mention of protein at that time....

Temp here lately has been between 60 -70 by day and oh, no lower than 40 by night. Inside, due to my private summers about 65 with the help of our A/C during the day.

Monday I have an appointment with a Women's Center...I will tell her of it too and request to give a sampling.

I hope it is the toilet water...and not a, oh gee what I always wanted gift from IT.

Oluwa...doing much better ty...had a good night sleep...it's saturday...what more can I say. lol

Anxious to hear what you find out about Mr. Bubbles, Oluwa. For now, sending on warm and fuzzy thoughts your way....and a prayer floating up that the bubbles are nothing to worry about...

The GYN PA said nothing, except I need to see a urologist. :shock: I think my thickened fibroid pear is/was pushing on my urethra...maybe. But the bubbles stopped.

Makes me feel like it was all in my head...airhead.

Oh.

It's not in your head...it's murphy's law. Soon as ya get an appointment to see the type of specialist you need to see....the symptoms stop. It happens to me all the time. Or worse they symptoms are there but the air head doctor has bad lighting in their their treatment room and they cant see anything.

I have these circular red area's on my legs and on my neck....they look like pressure spots...I can seen them clear as day. But the rhuemy's office is so dimmly lit I dont think you could even sit and read in there. I should take pictures of them and show them to her. hahahaha.

Hang in there kiddo....keep the appointment and let the specialists do their thing.

Hope you had a good night sleep heck at this time of night I hope you are still sleeping comfy cozy warm.

My beast woke me up at 4 a.m. something about FOOD and NOW :roll:

Geez, SITS, you got up about the time I finally fell asleep! Sleep....hmmm...I remember something about sleep. Oh, yeah...that's what you do to feel rested, right? Hah! :roll:

Take a power nap today; warm bath tonight; something to drink that makes you sleepy (warm milk? herbal tea?) Hope you get some rest!
